    Angry aureate regkeys

    I downloaded this combo IP program. I uninstalled it from my computer because
    I found that it had ad/spy ware on it! When I scanned my computer with Lavasoft Ad-ware program it still showed the stuff still on there! Its a collection of Regkeys named AUREATE! This is spyware right? But the problem is it won't let me delete it or quarantine it, It just freezes the program up! Help please!

    Aureate / Radiate
    Aureate (pronounced: or'-ee-ate) is the granddaddy of the spyware systems. When the whole spyware problem came to my attention, Aureate — which later changed its name to "Radiate" because no one could figure out how to pronounce the original name — was installed in over 30 million (30,000,000) and counting Windows PC's worldwide. And, it was being carried into new machines by more than 500 "advertising supported" programs.
